Not sure what that is. I don't think it's a Die Crack

Looks like a die crack up top to like a lamination error toward bottom but I don't know I'm new to this but it looks like some sort of error to me

I feel both are contact marks from damage to the coin. (Probably a garage job)

Taken the liberty of drawing all over your pix. The RED circles show a break in the line, die cracks do NOT do this. In YELLOW shows an apparent pressure ridge and direction of movement. Also of MAJOR note is the parabolic impression is exactly the diameter of a cent (19mm). What I cannot explain nor figure out is how Little Johnnie in the Garage would have done this without destroying the S of TRUST. The smashing of another coin rim possibly could have done this, but? I'm wondering if this could have been done to a blank planchet then stamped, quite possibly a Struck through of massive rim burr?

It makes no sense to me till someone can explain why the S and T were not touched I'm going to have to disagree Yeah I know the edge is PMD but that line is making no sense
